NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, m—_ ROTHSCHILD'S HOME T0BECOME MUSEUN Jowish Antiquities to Be Hounsed | at Frankfort-on-Main . Washington D, €, May 4—~"Frank. fort-—sausage" probably is the reac- tion of the average American to the report that the home of the five fam- ous Frankforters is to be a museum, | Frankfort-on-the-Main in Germany, | the town from which hailed the fam. ous banking family’ of Rothsehild, is to turn the old home place of that family Into a Museum of Jowlsh An- tiguities, “It is upon the financial strength of Frankfort that its import commerelal standing among the cities of the Buropean Continent rests, rather than upon its manufacturers, and other in- dustries, though it has these in abund- ance, Sinee the days of old Mayor Anselm, the first of the Rothschilds who won fame a8 a financier and sent out his five sons to corner the money markets of other European countries Frankfort has been the home of some of the strongest moneyed institutions in the world,"” says a bulletin in the Natlonal Gepgraphic Soclety from its Washington, D, C,, headquarters, O1d “Ford of the Franks" “Frankfurt, now the sige of Mil. waukee, Wisconsin, or Washington, D, C., wag the old Trajectum Francorum of ‘Ford of the I'ranks,’ of early Ro- man days which Charlemagne select- ed as the place for the convecation of bishops and nobles, Its position in a fertile and picturesque plain sur- rounded by mountains has heen one of the chief factors contributing to its long career of almost uninterrupted prosperity, “During the days of Mayor Assolm, Frankfort, like most European cities had a Jewish quarter known as the Judenghsso, the gates of which were closed at night to prevent the inhab- itants from going out of their portion of the city until morning. Those gates were torn down during the rench oceupation of the city during 1806, By degrees almost all the old houses i the Ghetto have been torn down, with the exception of Number 148 in the street now known as the Bornestrasse, the ancestral home of the Rothschilds which has been restored to its forme condition. This is the building which is to house the valuable collection of antiquities representing all periods of Jewish history from the Diaspora or the dispersion of the Jews after the Babylonian captivity. A Safe Deposit Vault of History “Many a famous man has left a heritage of history and romance to the city. Charlemagne built one of his favorite palaces there; in the thir- teenth century the city became one of the notable free cities of the con- tinent and so remained until 1866 when after having sided with Austria in the war with Germany it was form- ally incorporated in the Prusian State. “From the days of }'rederick Bar- barossa, who was the first reigning German King to he chosen in the city, it became customary to elect the Ge man rulers there, and in 1356 (‘Inx!ohl IV made this custom a right.
